Driver's View - Route 147 Piccadilly to West Didsbury- unedited - rush hour 

Lol. He found the key after engineering was on the way out with a spare and never told anyone so he went back leaving engineering to come out and find he wasn't there

No problem it makes all the difference when they are unedited

@@Mancbuses 👍

Well said

Platt fields

I have watched the whole video and have no idea what you are on about. I can see me checking mirrors etc but no point am i reading If you got such a problem give me a timestamp

Spot on fella, I thought I was the only one who spotted this.

@Mancbuses You suppose to do all your checks before the bus moves, you're looking down to your left whilst the bus is still moving, not good.

and after the bus moves off being aware of any changes that happen esp moving away from the kurb of a busy bus stop making sure everyone is clear of the bus as it moves away its all good and well checking before you move but it changes. for example you pull away from a bus stop either ppl close to the kurb and watch the tail as you pull away to ensure it not gonna hit anyone as ppl move about. and anyone that might be running for the bus don't wanna drag anyone. But this is your view which you are welcome too

@Mancbuses Fella. Stop. I'm not having a go at you, im talking about you checking inside your pockets, bending forward and looking down left near behind your seat all whilst the bus is moving, that doesn't make sense about you describing what happens after you move the bus at the start of your shift, you were looking for the "lost key".

Isn't that the worse bit about bus driving. You ask most drivers and they say its a good job if it wasn't for the passengers lol

At stagecoach it was 5 on 2 off but the rest days weren't together. Typically between 7 and ¹⁰ hour days. At where I am now it's 5 on 3 off

Thanks

What’s your Greenroad score? 😂

Thanks for watching I am sure we have covered this in another comment thread

@@Mancbusesamazing video Jordan is this from a few years ago as the e400 in magic wrap is old and i not see it no more

Suction cup to cab door or window with a gopro.

you could if it was 3 years ago :D Left on good terms with them never had a customer complaint :D

@@Mancbuseswhat do you do now you still on buses mate

Very

And

nope it have a Cummins 4BT i think with a Voith gearbox

Oh ok

Thanks for watching. I was feeling for keys. This video is a good few years old now.

If its setup right once use to it. Really easy until they change the layout

Shown once then its route notes, After that its like the drive to work

Yh under the training bus

@@Mancbuses ahh okay

Thanks

Yes most service bus seats putting it frankly are totally shit like sitting on wood however when I was at high peak and where I am now they have good seats and will replacement once they gone rubbish.

Stagecoach has good seats ? , good lumbar support?@@Mancbuses

Newer buses yes older ones no. The seats go really quickly because of the amount of people that sit in them of different weights etc they soon get crushed so there is no support

good that they look after the drivers as well as the passengers not many do , would you say working for stagecoach is good ? im thinking about maybe driving for therm @@Mancbuses

That is very depending on the area you are going for and the depot @@kevingig9285

normal rota is all over the place I was on Late rota an although they was suppose to be the same ish some were silly like starting a late at 1pm think we had one that started at 11am

@@Mancbuses would of thought they would try and keep people on a similar rota instead of all over the place , which in turn would help with drivers health ie sleep pattern and eating pattern . which in turn would help with drivers being able to safely navigate the buses and deal with passengers and road users . which is what its all about . i find it strange that they dont do that tbh

@@kevingig9285 nope suppose to be a week of early. Middle late etc but doesn't work out like that

@@Mancbuses dont like the sound of that

@@Mancbuses are days off consistent

These are old. There is plenty if you look though the channel :) in playlists what happening is the old footage is being uploaded now without edits as we can now do that

@@Mancbuses fair enough, love all your content new or old ahah for someone who want to be a bus driver it’s satisfying to watch someone else doing this until I can do it my self, 6 more month on my license then it’s my turn

thanks no problem

Now that would be good
